Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 43,251,113, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.
We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.
| 1 | 43,251,113 | |
| -1 | -43,251,113 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 43,251,113.
Example:
1 x 43,251,113 = 43,251,113
and
-1 x -43,251,113 = 43,251,113
Notice both answers equal 43,251,113
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 43,251,113 and divide it by 2:
43,251,113 ÷ 2 = 21,625,556.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 21,625,556.5 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 43,251,113 | |
| -1 | -43,251,113 |
Now, we try dividing 43,251,113 by 3:
43,251,113 ÷ 3 = 14,417,037.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,417,037.6667 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 43,251,113 | |
| -1 | -43,251,113 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
43,251,113 ÷ 4 = 10,812,778.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,812,778.25 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 43,251,113 | |
| -1 | 43,251,113 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 37 | 67 | 73 | 239 | 2,479 | 2,701 | 4,891 | 8,843 | 16,013 | 17,447 | 180,967 | 592,481 | 645,539 | 1,168,949 | 43,251,113 |
| -1 | -37 | -67 | -73 | -239 | -2,479 | -2,701 | -4,891 | -8,843 | -16,013 | -17,447 | -180,967 | -592,481 | -645,539 | -1,168,949 | -43,251,113 |
